Hi-res mugen, not the screen pack but the full game made by mugen9s, keeps coming up with the error:Error: can't change video modeError message Error: Can't change video to 1280x800x16bitsIs there a reason this is happening? I'm currently using windows vista service pack 2. Could this be interfering with the game or do you think it is something else?

Now the problem is that your screen resolution will not be able to play the game but dont worry this can be fixed!

First: Go in your Hi-res mugen direcory and into the folder named "data".

Second: Open the file called "mugen.cfg" with notepad.

Third: Use the "ctrl F function to find the part where it says "Video Win".

Finally: change the "width" and "height" to your own choice (800 width and 600 height or 600 width and 400 hieght).

Heres what it looked like before:

;-------------------------------------------------------[Video Win] ;Enter the width and height of the resolution you want to set here. ;The optimal resolution is 320x240, but if your video card has problems ;You may want to try 640x480.Width = 1280 }-----------> Change this to 800Height = 720 } ----------> Change this to 600

;This is the color depth at which to run MUGEN. You should set it to ;16 bit color unless your video card has problems with it. ;16-fastest, 24,32-slower, 8-slowest/worstDepth = 16

;Set this parameter to 0 to disable screen stretching, and set it to 1 if ;you want to scale it up to fit the current resolution.Stretch = 1

;Set this parameter to use a resolution-doubling filter. You will ;need a fast machine to use these filters. You will need to increase ;the screen resolution to at least 640x480 for these modes. ;0 - off ;1 - diagonal edge detection ;2 - bilinear filtering ;3 - horizontal scanlinesDoubleRes = 4

And here is what it should look like now:

;-------------------------------------------------------[Video Win] ;Enter the width and height of the resolution you want to set here. ;The optimal resolution is 320x240, but if your video card has problems ;You may want to try 640x480.Width = 800Height = 600

Im sure this should resolve your predicament thank you and enjoy the game.

Oh and it would be a good idea to post any problems with games in this section of the forum Help on Games. dont worry about it and welcome to caiman.

Thanks for this info, I can finally play this game (it is a little strange, that a game with 40 characters takes that much space).
